Is your water clear? You can swim up to shock level as long as your water is clear.

The wife and I usually get to Wallyworld after 11pm. Many times they don't restock it for a couple of days. I can only guess there are a lot of pool owners around here. :lol:

Hmmmmm. MSDS for regular bleach and the outdoor both show 5 - 10%. The outdoor shows to have several more ingredients than the regular. Think I'll stick with the Great Value stuff....

First saw this last night in Walmart. $2.98 for a 96 oz jug. I looked at the label, but never could see the concentration. The website was no help either. If it's % is higher than the regular 6%, I guess it would be easier than continually hunting the 182 oz jugs. Seems Walmart is almost always...

I'm not going to make the same mistake. I am picking up some of the liquid CYA from Leslie's to get some in there and then will add some of granulated to take me up to where I need to be.

Yep. They came from two different Walmarts, but that probably doesn't make any difference.

Well, looks like I got a bad two batches of CYA Here's the CYA standard that Dave sent to me using my original R-0013 And This is my pool sample. I guess I'll head to Leslie's to get some of the liquid stabilizer.

I guess it's a .gif cycling through my pictures

Thanks for that techguy. That is cool. Would have looked much cooler if all of my pics were taken from the same perspective and at the same time of day. :lol: I absolutely love this pool. I am so glad I took the time to get it up and running. While I'm working in the heat during the day, I so...

I went around scrubbing everything I could see that might have looked suspect. I guess it just took some time. Even though I don't want to, I think I'm going to have to disassemble the waterfall to get everything out of it. I'm going to test again tonight just to make sure it's right

Richard asked for it, so here it is....

WooHoo! Passed the OCLT this morning! :party: :whoot: :hammer: :thequeen: :cheers: :party: Haven't been really trying for the past few days. Just test in the morning before heading to work and bring it to shock. Well, I lost .5 FC, I have 0 CC and my water has been crystal clear for a...

The only faith i have in Leslie's results is the other tests they performed were in line with my results. It took everything in me to wait behind three others having their water tested. The amount of bs I heard them spitting out was astounding. Of course, all of their recommendations to those...

Ok. Leslie's is showing CYA to be 30. I don't know how he tested it, because he was holding kind of underneath the counter where I couldn't see. All of the other tests were pretty much in line with my results.

Ok, thanks. As much as I hate to, I'll head over to Leslie's. I've already thrown the containers away, so I don't think there's any refund coming from Wallyworld. :lol:
